There are currently 5 different content types that can be displayed in the Digital Situation Report.
Article
This is where reports, stories, news items, and other text items are placed. The Article editing form contains the fields:
Section Heading
Required. Select one of the headings from the drop down menu. For more information about the different heading titles, please visit the Article Content types section under DSR editorial guidelines.
Title
Required. Enter the title of your article here. There is a 256 character limit.
Article
Required. Enter the text of the article in this field. You can copy text from another file and paste it here instead of retyping the article. Please be sure to either paste the text as plain text (right click in the field ->Paste as Plain Text) or remove all formatting from the text before pasting it here.
Image
Optional. The article will publish without an image attached. Please note that the text will adjust to fit an image.
Figure: Article without Image (full width)
Figure: Article with Image
Cluster Status
Select the appropriate cluster from the drop down menu under “Global Cluster Icon”. The icon will be visible after you publish the content. You will need to include the Needs, Response, and Gaps (all three items are required) to publish this content type.
Interactive
To improve Digital SitRep performance and usability, interactives are not embedded or added directly into the report. Instead, an image of the interactive (a screen grab is sufficient) is uploaded along with a corresponding URL. The URL and image are both required to publish this content type.
Video
Copy and paste a YouTube URL into the Video URL field. The URL must be in the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=###### format.
Visual
You can upload a photograph or other visual (infographic, map, chart, etc) into this content type. The file must be an image file. PDFs will not upload.
